House painting!!!

So I have wanted to paint our house for the longest time. This is actually how Byron weaseled his way into his back country skiing equipment. He traded me the house being painted for him getting his back country ski gear. I knew he was going to get the gear anyway so I took him up on the deal. Yeah! We get to paint the house. Well, have the house painted anyway. The guy on the ladder is not Byron it is Trent. He was nice enough to come risk his life to paint our high walls. While we had him we tacked on the whole rest of the main floor, the master and the master bath, oh and the stairs leading to the basement. I love it! It took me a day to decide if I did or not but I do I love it. It has been a disaster for a little over a week, we ate dinner on the floor in the kitchen twice because we had no leftover counter space, the kids loved that. It is done now and so worth the pain it was to get there. The bottom picture is a finished shot. I will try to get photos of the other rooms but not today. They are messy and I am trying to catch up on the blogging so they will stay messy. We did a little dark accent in the bay windows we have three of them and they look really great. The walls are such a warm color now everything in the house looks richer and warmer. We should have done this ages ago which is why I am calling a plumber to come and add a sink in my laundry room this week, why are we waiting to make our house what we need when we have no plans to ever move again? Byron is just hoping spring will set in so I will forget the house and my attentions will be drawn to the yard. He's lucky, by Friday it will be 70 and I will be outside again. Can't wait!
